Intro - Chris from Murrieta, CA

[j29teamtahoe]

Hello everyone! My name is Chris Stout and I'm the lead Audio Engineer at Life Church, Temecula, California. We're at getlife.tv. Pastor Alex, our Creative Arts Pastor, has a blog up at betterthanblank.org. Check those sites out if you really want to get to know us...

I am a volunteer in our Creative Arts Ministry which covers Tech, Worship/Music, Promotions, Stage setup/design. I'm actually an active member of the US Navy where I'm an electronics technician. My wife, Stephanie and I have been married for about a year and a half and just brought our first child, Ryan Matthew into the world on 07/07/2007.

Well, that's enough about me. Looking forward to meeting you soon!

Hey Chris, welcome. I've enjoyed the tech confessionals! Congrads on little Ryan Matthew!

Thank you very much! Finally got a break here at home and enoying the peace and quiet.

Thanks for checking out the confessionals. Is there anything you'd like me to talk about more...or less? :-)

Hello there Chris, nice to see a 'neighbor' of mine on board here. Congradulations on becoming a dad!

Next door in Perris, CA

Just down the road from ya! Alex (betterthanblank) lives over in Winchester/French Valley area! My wife works in Moreno Valley so she obviously drives by you guys every day (well, not right now). It's amazing what a "Small" world it is we live in!

[j29teamtahoe]

Fred,

Thanks! Alex is addicted to blogging, and I'm addicted to his blog! So he sent me the link over here and I might just become addicted to this! Wait, didn't we just cover addictions at church? Maybe I should have paid more attention! LOL :-)

Chris,

How about a tech confessional giving a run down of your equipment. Everything from the A&H board to FOH setup. Mics, compressors, EQ's the whole deal. The geek in my just wants to see your cool stuff, the adult in me is currently doing inventory of my own equipment and would like to see what other people are using.

Hmm, sounds like a good idea!

Hi Chris,
I will be visiting my family in Murietta this summer! I'll be checking out your church's site, I'm sure! Perhaps we'll meet you on your turf, and worship with your church family!
God bless,
Kathy
